Lecture Series – Current Research Issues in Heterodox Economics

We are once again offering a lecture series in Heterodox Economics (German Title: Heterodoxie in der VWL) this upcoming winter-term. The Course will be offered in English. The aim of this lecture is to look at Economics from a pluralist perspective“ both in a theoretic as well as in a research-oriented way. In the course of the lecture, we will shed light at various schools of thought in Economics, namely dogma history, post-growth-economics, heterodox development economics, Economics of Inequality and feminist economics.

The Course consists of one lecture and one tutorial per week. Every second week a new topic will be presented theoretically. In the following week, a guest-lecturere will then present her or his related research. The lecture takes place each Wednesday from 16:15 to 17:45pm in room ZHG 103 .

Students can choose from two tutorials, of which one will be offered in German and one in English. The course can be chosen by Bachelor as well as Master Students and will earn you 6 Credit Points.
